SPIRIT OP TIIE 'PLTIILIC SOURNAIS. Some of the Chancery Barristers, it seems, are hecem ing exceedingly restless, at the prospect of the intermi nable sittings of the learned head of their Court. "Every man," says_the Solicitor-General, " knOws what .a green arbour is but an equity lawyer :" and some of the Learned Gentlemen finding, that, instead of a long vacation, they are not, es things are going on, likely to have any at all, threaten actually, in vulgar parlance, - " to cut and run," leaving the Lord Chancellor and the suitors to see whe ther they can get on without them. To be sure, Lord Eldon does seem to he a most extraordinary man of his age. Instead of being worn out and sinking, as is the case with one-half of the rest of the world, tinder the un paralleled heat - of these dog days—he seems to be at this season of the year, to use his own language on ano ther occasion, quite " a giant refreshed," and apparently most capable of work when others are most worn out with fatigue.2lloraing Herald. • It will be highly interesting to observe the line of con duct that the Pacha of Egypt will pursue on the arrival of of Lord Cochrane at the seat of war. All that a wise and politie,Prince.-could do to establish his power, and achieve his plans of conqueet, has been effected by Mahmoud Thus far all his fiesigns have succeeded, and he will use the most desperate efforts rather than see them bellied and defeated. His revenue is immense, although the enormous tribute to the Sultan is regularly paid annually ; and Lie command of population extends at present from the toontlis of the Nile to the confines of Abyssinia. his er,abitiOn, no doubt, looks to the attack also of _the latter kingdom, and in: its present disordered state, it could not, long make an effectual resistance to the disciplined Arabs and Albanians of Mal - imolai. He has spies, and clever ones too, constantly in pay, in these countries, under the disguise either of travellers or merchants; it matters not' of what nation or' religion men are who can serve the Pachass-infidels, Greeks, or evenWahabees—so that they are men of talent and intrigue. Should his arms be successful in Greece, the vanquished would find him amuchmoremer ciful toaster than the Sultan, as his trueltiesseldom interfere with his polities, and, in his own kingdom of Egypt, be has never willingly sanctioned the massacre of a single. Greeke But Ibrahim learned his lessoreof blood in Sen-: naur, where the wretched, but warlike people, were slaughtered like sheep, and boats:were loaded with their ears, to seed down 'to Cairo, as a proof to his father bow, many of his enemies had been - made headless.— s Lord Cochrane can certainly make no attack on Egypt, that is likely to be attended with any distinguished success, or: to be- very . serviceable to the muse. The navy of the Paella constateathiefly of light vessels, with a few frigates, part of which -only.are to be found in the harboar,of andria ; and: the destruction of these would exasperate. Mal - mond as much as the destruction of the town itself,' for he is passionately attached to his small arid newly created navy ; and, with his large resources, and com mand of shipping of all kinds, the loss would be easily repaired'. A- hostile landing in Egypt need not com-: Pel the Paella to recal Ibrahim and his Arabs from. Grekel , ' •for the forces -, of the. country,: both in Turks PA Albanians, are more than sufficiently numerous for its - - Comidete defence; Sixty 'thousand , troops' .are constantly mnaiotained,, and of these a great part are dis perscd in the different towns; bet at Alexaedria and Cairts, ay very large force is always stationed, and, at this ? moment a numerous camp is formed in the neighbourhood of the former. The most efficient kind of warfare against the Paella of Egypt, will be to intercept his supplies of provisions and troops for his Grecian army ; and a few blows of this kind would go a great way towards finishing the contest. The Arabs of Ibrahim's army, thOugh ac tive and useful- soldiers, in such a At raggliv, campaign, cannot stand the change of climate ! the rains and cold of the mirth of the Mores will rapidly thin them ; disease anti the privationa of the campaign have already made sad liftVlV in their ranks. Against. the Tsirkieih navy the great skill and dining valour of leis Lordsbip will probably, be eujitiently sittaiessful. Although remarkably fine. ships, and crowded with nice, so great is the confusion that al ways prevails in their line-of-battle ships, and the clumsi liPrig and Amnia& of the crews in manoeuvring, that an attcrnpt at boarding, even from a frigate, would, with English sailors, soon lower the flag of the Pro phet. The Ottoman sailors would not stand a during attack of this kind, or, if they did use their !mines, their over-crowded decks would impede and injure all their effitibi of resistance. This is the ,period, above all others, for the Paths of Egypt ,to shake off the Turkish yoke; anti. proclaiM his independence. The , war of the Sultan with with his Janissaries must, of course, weaken his bands, and distract his deigns the much, to allow him to oppose the rebellion of his Viceroy. Moreover, the lat ter possesses, by this unlooked-for event., the finest mate rials to aid . his revolt ; among his Tarkishforees are pro bably many Janissaries, or relatives, or friends, of those who have been Weltered at Ironic, WhO will rejoice to take part in (lir sante cause, and embrace any means to avenge their death. Hitherto thu veil of hypocrisy has been admir ably worn; the subsidy.of forty milliona of piastres most punetnally paid ; and all the Deputies of tho Gravid Seignior received at Cairo with due honour. But he well knows . his head would be the moat acceptable present that could he laid at the feet of his Master, and the very Sheiks, in Upper Egypt, seem to know their Paella's hu mour so we- 1 0.40 1 4 &mann it; placed on the head and eyes with infinite reverence, while that of the Sultan is fleeted with scorn and contempt. NoW, too, when ti fleet of Lord Coehrane is about to appear in the Mediter• ranches—if Mehmoud has resolution to seize the oppors tunity, and sees it his policy to allow the. Greeks their independence, initieed of striving to crush them, and:joins. his fleet to that of the English--nn effort on the part of Turkey could prevent hie wire independence, and Egypt w ould soon become 'a :Separate and powerful kingdom. — The only thing he has to dread is the prejudice mid bigotry of his Mehometan troeps, for his people are too obsolete slaves to have any opinien of their own; but his Turkish soldiers will hardly endure to see the Banner of the Close wave inside that of thr Crescent, or the bated and despised (freaks aided in their rebellion by the Viceroy of the :•-ailein.

The Vtex-Csta Nes:Leon addressing himself .to Mr. Hart, said, that as many Gentlemen of the Bar were now present, he wished; to take this opportunity of stating, that he had heard with mrprise and regret, that the regulation he had made for, the des patch of business, was deemed iuconsietent with the practice of, that COurt, and that it interfered with the proceedings of the other. , He was quite sure that such an opinion was for Med only because what he had said was inaccprately represented, or imper fectly Understood, for no opinion was ever formed with so little foundation. It would be recollected, that applications were made on a recent occasion for dissolving injunctions, and he said that ho could DM suffer any thing to interfere with the bankrupt peti t tionA ; but that an soon as those petitions should have been gone i through, he would , be ready to hear the motions on the subjects to which the, applications referred. It could not be denied that this wee ,quite ,rionsistent with the practice of the Court. As to motiena,for, injunctions they were made every day, the Court being always open to them, but the practice was altogether different with respect to motions for dissolving injunctions. His Honour then adverted to the practice of the Court, from which it appears that motions for dissolving injunctions could not be die _ posed of in Term before a week, nor out of Term before twenty days. - The practice of permitting such motions to be entertained after the last Seal was of a very modern date, and he could appeal to one of the most experienced Clerks of that Court in proof of the fact. Therefore, when he bad consented to hear motions to dissolve injunctions, at the end of ten days, agreeably to the regu lation he had made, he thought that he was granting a great in dulgence. He must again say, that when it was supposed the course he had taken was out of the practice of the Court, he was altogether misunderstood. Mr. Ilastx.—l do not understand what the circumstance is to which your Honour alludes. I have heard of something that passed in. Court, but soy information is very imperfect. The VICE-CHANCiLLOR.- 1 sin unwilling to go into further particulars, but I cannot help expressing my surprise awl regret that such en opinion should have been formed, Mr. Ilawr.—l can only repeat that I know not to what your Honour alludes. The VicesCiteNeeetos.--There is no man here hilt must be aware of the importance of the regular Inteiness of the Court being gone through with► all possible despatch. There are complaints of a long standing of the business of the Court being interrupted by occasional proceedings. In the regulation I have made I can have no other motive than the advantage of the piddle ; and I think think that instead of any imputation of delay being thrown out against me, it ought to be admitted that I have shown great in dulgence, while at the same time my wish is, that not a moment's delay should take place. Mr. HART.---I now collect that your Honour alludes to injuries thins. for staying proceedings at law. The Vice-Cnasterraza.—No, no, Mr. Ilart,' such motions occur every day. What I have said, refers to motions for dila solving injunctions. Mr. Ham—Any information I possess on this matter is not much to be relied upon.. -I understand that the motion, to which your Honour alludes, was not to dissolve an injunction for staying proceedings at law, but to dissolve an injunction for staying waste. The Vlcie-Cuartereeoa.—But there 1-required an affidavit of he facts to be made, in the first instance, in support of a special case. Mr. BARBER said; that he was Counsel for the applicant on the occasion, and that his Honour refused the motiokonly, because the special affidavit was not made. • The Vice-CHANCELLOR.--If especial case is to be made out, it can only be on affidavit. Mr. BARBRA said, that the case in which he was concerned could have nothing whatever to do with the circumstance to which his Honour adverted. The VICE-CHANCELLOR.—What Mr. Barber states is perfectly correct. No person ought to be better acquainted with the prat• Lice of the Court than 1 am,. and 1 believe my experience in ►t is greater than that of any other person, with the exception of Mr. Hart. I can only once mote say, that i have either been misre presented or misunderstood, as, to the regulation I have matle. Here the subject ►bopped. LAW INTELLIGENCE. BANK DISCOUNT'S. The individuals who made ervep . pliention lately th the Directors of the Bank to lower the rate of demount, are not diatioursged by the repulse they met with, but renew their representations on every occasion that offers.. It is evident that as yet they have made no impression in the Bank parlour, though the eircumatan ces which regulate the value of money, are nearly the same as they were when the former reduction of the rate of. discount took place. , One objection to the measure.on the pa of the Directors has been before stated—viz, that it would assist speculations in the funds. But it is understood further, that there are other ob jections, which arise out of the experience obtained by the last experiment of that nature. The Bank gained little by the altera tion, because the banketa, hill-brokers and other dealers , in mo ney, were compelled to a reductiOn below that of the Bank, in order to find employment for their capital. They got the good bills by it, and the others want to the Bank to take their chance of acceptance. But the stimulus thus given to the (ire's rithaul Alm _value of Goveriumnt securities, and enabled the Goverronent ,to.retlace the iuterest both ,on stock and Exche quer bills. Here the Bank sustained a private loss, as the debt owed by Government was represented by txchequer bills, the interest no which was lessened one fourth, and that reduction was capable of being traced to that imprudent step, of which the Di , rectors had been guilty. To gratify the Ministers and the great landed proprietota, they allowed an artificial rise to take place in the value of eve) , description of property, but by which, they, as the Government bank, were sure to be , loser's. This. is the pa sition taken, we are led to believe, by the Directors themselves. It may be good policy, for. a mere trading bank like that 9f Am sterdam, where no intimate, connection with the . Government exists, to lower - its rats of discounts; but the case iii different,ftorri the Baplt of Eogland, while it remains creditor to the; State fin. co large an amount. Much mischief would have been spared to the comnumity as well as loss to the Bank,. had this principle been e ' made manifest earlier.— Times. SIX PERSONS NEARLY POISONED. On Sunday afternoon, the five children, ,and maid-servant, of Mr. Dick'', Bell-yard, Temple-bar, were all at once taken ill. A suspicion arose, that their indisposition'originited from their hav ing eaten a plum-pie at dinner ; espenially, at neither Mr. or Mrs. Dicke, who had not partaken of it, felt themselves indisposed.-- Mr. Jones, surgeon,. of Chancery-line. was instantly called in and he declared that, from the ayniptorna of the .patients,, they must have taken some strong poison. Ile discovered, upon ex amination, that there was something deleterious in the, crust of the pye, and immediately applied the necessary medicines,, which, after several lungs of dreadful suffering, were succet,sful. The servant had purchased the flour from a chandler's -shop, kept by a person named Ttirner, in Bell-yard. Mrs. Dicks herself made the crust and pie. It is satisfactory to be enabled to state, that all the children . end servant are expected to reviver. We should add, that some of the fruit from which the pie was made had been eaten by the family the preceding day without any ill effects.. A short time ago, at Walkley, near Sheffield, a swarm of bees, which had taken flight 'ficim their a custoined habitation, began to surround the head and neck of a girl who was pulling weeds in an adpining arden. She, with a great deal of p resence of mind, suffered them peaceably to congregate on her, till the upper part of her body was literally covered. By the assistance of two persons, who were in the same garden, the bees were safely re-hived, and the girl escaped without a single sting.---Lineoln Mercury. on Friday last 41 ballot was taken at the East India House, fur the determination of the following ques tion, viz. f‘ That this Court confirm the resolution of the Court of Directors of the sth of July, whereby the commander and owners of the late ship Royal George arc fully acquitted from imputation of neglect Or 'Hi:leo-millet in respect to the loss of that ship." At ix O ' CIOLi4 the glasses were closed and delivered to the crutilmerb, who reported the question to be decid ed in the affirmative. -- A Correspondent, wh t osac that he was inducedto become a 4 u b sc 6h er to t h e Northern Rail Road," " I n "'mg the respectable names of Georg e Flibbert,•Esq., Pascoe Grenfell, Es+, L.

POLICE, INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. —An !dish lady, about six or seven and-twenty years of age, and of very prepossessing appearance, the wife of a medical gentleman in the city, applied to the Lord Mayor, for advice in what manner to set, in order to change her husband's - cruel determination against bee, with whieb, unfor tunately, the laws of this country could not be made to interfere. From the written 'statement which the complainant handed in, it appeared that her huaband married her at Liverpool, eleven years ago, according to the forms of the Catholic Church, which forms, as they were both Catholics, she considered m binding as those of the Established Chinch. In Ireland, where she was "born and bred," it was the case, and why not in this country? Besidmi he had told her so hitnielf. They had three children now living, but, notwithstanding that sacred tie, and her marked conjugal and maternal attachment, her husband took it into his heactto entertain doubts of her fidelity ; and, acting upon that suspicion, turned her out of doors six months ago, and never al lowed her to enter the house again, or to see her children; the youngest of whom was bu t two y ears old, and, of course, particu larly in need of a mother's care. He, besides, took advantage of the prejtidicee piloting in this country against the Roman Catholic persuasion, and branded her with the name of prostitute, and her children with that.of bastards. - The Loan Memoir. lamented that men could be found who were Capable of such conduct, and disposed to violate an obligation I which was certainly as binding in the eye of morality and religion as any possibly could be. He asked the complainant whether her friends had interfered to procure a reconciliation.. She said they had,- but that all their efforts had been ineffectual. Her husband had refused to let her see her children, or to give her a halfpenny. His Lordship desired her to send her friends to her husband with his (the Lord Mayor's) recommendation to him to alter his conduct towards her, and if he paid no attention to that message, to come to the Mansion House in the course of the week, when some other course should probably be adopted. GUILDH ALL.--Jonies Neudon, one of the messengers em ployed at Apotbecaries'-ball, was charged before Mr. Alderman Mannar yesterday, with purloining about till. of opium fromthe company's stores. Frederick Leffler, who has the charge of the store-cellars, de posed that when he goes home to his mesh, he is in the habit of leaving all his keys in a drawer by the side of the accountant's desk; and, ,upon returning from dinner on Saturday, he observed the prisoner bunging up a key, and manceuvring to slip another key, the bowl of which he could not conceal in his band, into the drawer before-mentioned ; but he saw the witness was watching him, and therefore left the room without effecting his purpose.— The witness immediately examined the drawer, and missing the key of the essential oil cellar, overtook the prisoner as he was leaving the premises, and charged him with having it in hie pos. session. Ile denied that he even knew there was such a key, but he objected to going back to be searched. Leffler, however, was peremptory upon this point, and Dowdney, a constable, was sent for, who found upon the prisoner, not only the key, but tilb. 7oz. of opium, a drug which was kept in the cellar to which the key gave him neer'''. On examining the stock of opium in the cellar, a deficiency of upwards of 261 b. was discovered to have accrued since May. A solicitor for the prisoner said, he had no observation to make upon the evidence, but he begged the Magistrate to remand the pri soner for a few days, as he believed that course would be themeans of fUrthering the ends of justice. Mr.' Alderman MAGNAY, and the gentleman who attended on the part of the Apothecaries' Company, thought a sufficient case for Committal could be made out that day, and doubted much thae i eny benefit would arise front remanding the p risoner. The soliditbr; 'howeVer; again pressed the Magistrate upon the same grodnd, and the prisoner was ultimately remanded for five days, Quays Fartarnsirrra—Mr. Philip Giusti; a taVern-keeper, was charged with having held the hands of a Mr. Thomas Gatehouse, whilst one Mr. Edward Kinnaird, thumped him upon the back ; and Mr. _Edward Kinnaird, was charged with having inflicted the said thumping upon , the. hack of the said Thomas, fee. Mr. Thomas Gatehouse is a muster tailor, residing in Duke street, West Smithfield ; and such a tailor as is nut to he seen' every day—" a rod portly man, 'ifaith, and a corpulent; of a cheerful look, a, Oohing eye, and a moot neble carriage."---By his evidence it appeared, that on Thursday evening lea, he repaired en the tavern kept by the defendant, Mr. Philip Glaas—where, indeed, he was in the habit of: spending all his evenings, inas much RS the ii , 14101 4 were good, the landlord very emu-toots, Ana the ~nmvatiy, for, the mist part, ~t trt'uu(ly intelligent and agreeable. On the . evening in question, the. company con sisted of his old friend Me. Edward iitinaird, one or two othir gentlemen, sod the landlord, Mr. Philip Glass.--whose glasses .were ail bright as his wit upon, almost all. occasions ; but sinnehow or other, on this particular evening, things did not go I off quite so agree Ably as usual. For the first hour or two they were pretty comfortable; and Mr. Kinnaird had even requested Mr. Gatehouse to take a glass of brandy and water at his ex perice--.40 he often had done aforetime ; but, whether Mr. Gate- house'siready acceptance of the said brandy and w ater excited his displeasure, or whether he repented himself of having offered it at all—brit au it was, that immediately afterwards, he, Mr. Kin,. 'laird, began to grow very.waspisb and unpleasant. He would acareely allow Mr. Gatehou s e to put a word edgeways into any argument then going on ; told him he was a fool, and knew no thing about anything ; and even accused him of having remembered to forget to pay hie share of a supper of beef a-la-mode, which they had taken together some. months before. Of course, Mr. Gatehouse did not suffer all this vituperation to he heaped upon him without replying; and an altercation ensued something after the fashion of the Atigna Mining Company's affair the other day—except that there was no "Flattery" whatever in this case. At length Mr. Kinnaird' began to grow tired of quarrelling, and Mr. Gatehouse began to believe that " every thing was coining round very comfortably," when the landlOrd, Mr. Philip Glass, suddenly seized hint by both his hands, and held him fast whilst Mr. Kiunaird pummelled him upon the back. "He gave me fifteen good hard thumps," added Mr. Gatehouse, " and why he left off I don't know, except it was that he was tired of thumping ; but he that as it may, when he had dune, and Mr. Glass had loosed my.bands, I turned round to them and said, ' if that's friendship, I never knew it but by name.' " • Mr Gatehouse said, that was his case ; but we think he might have wound it up better by (tenting the following case in. point from Cowper's Pleas : The friend who hails you, Tom or Jack, Andigowltehzithumsr;:toturmneyx! hack Ts such a Mend, that one had need • . Be very much his friend, indeed, To pardon, or to hear it. Messrs. Kienaird and Glass in their defence, however, totally denied that Mr. Gatehotree had been thumped at all, and they called a 'witness, who, deposed that after many high words between Mr. Gatehouse and Mr. Kinnaird, they began to manifest symp toms of coming to blows ; whereupon Mr. Glass placed himself between them ea a peacemaker, and there was peace—not a single blow, being *truck by either party. The sitting Magistrate (Mr. Alderman Matis:AV) immediately directed that Mr. cletebouse should be oonstiited, and the parties left the office—Mears. Kinnaird and Giese cleaning that Mr. Gatehorunt :" must have dreamer/ the fifteen thumps ;" and Mr. Gatehouse declining that, p dream or no dream,' he would indict them both at the Sessions. BOW-STREET.--An investigation of an extraordinary nature oecimied the attention of the magistrates at this office during the whole of yesterday. Mr. Harvey Price, of Middle-row, Hol born, bookeeller ; Mr. Deer, of Clare-market, cora-dealer ; and Mr. John Deer, his brother, were respectively charged, by a girl named Mary Rooker, with forcibly violating her person. The two :first-named individuals were brought by Dike, on a witirant, , to answer the charge ; but the third was abient, it was said, in the country. , The proaceutrix appeared to be about 16 or . 17 years of age, of pale complexion, and not at all well -looking—indeed, she may be said to be what is called "very plain." `idle was ;attended by her mother, and, when exam i ne d, gave her evidence , with great ap pearance of, artiesearetia and modesty of deusesnour. Her statement, so far as it can be detailed in our columns, was as follows—About three months ego she went to live in the fa mily of Mr. and• Mrs. Deer, of Clare-market, as. servant of all all work. Mr;Price, the second defendant, was married to Mrs. l it ) 'e lm, e e t rl"' morning . sister, iie and a rihird.t:Pealirpiroceiniecthe habit of visiting at the house, and I ,sometime* stopping there for a day or so. On last Sunday three weeks Mr. anti Mrs. Deer went omit of town for the day, and in r t i h ot e m ii , rst vab il e ou n r l : e. aeand m e i nt , e4l ,ti e re it yl e e l e i lar e e n re : am a l s oa li nle i l ch eitu is tot a ltlae t k ia e t cau r r o t r se a' n4 e u t after sonic indifferent conversation, asked her a question of an indelicate nature, which she did not underotend, and she told him so. He then began to take indecent liberties with her, and at l eng th th r ew her on the floor, and did as be pleased with h e r ; Wh en h e first threw her down, she resisted all sha could, and threatened to call out ".merd„.,,; Out he h e ld his hand upon her throat, so as to prevent her from screaming , an d ortrpoWered her. The s h o p mid house' were shot up at this time. • Sh e efkrwardsctietb and said she would tell people of it ; bu t he said she would be a fool if she did, for that ooliody would believ e her. When her Master 'and mistress,were.from home on it Sun'! - ' day, she always dined at Mr. Duncombe's, Mrs. Deer's father's I house, in Middle-row, Holborn, where Mr. Price and 'hie wife lived; aml 111. r. Price, en the occasion in question, Was also going there, and he told her to go one way, and he would go another, and , she did so. On the following day she de scribed to her mistress, Mrs. Deer, what Mr. Price had done to her, and she told her to hold her tongue, and that she ought to be ashamed to. mention'sitch & thing, to expose the family.— She then told the people (named Herbert) at the public-house next door to Mr. Deer's, and they alto told her mistress of it, and .received nearly the same answer. On the Sunday when she went to Mr. Duncorribe's, she , mentioned partly what bad happened to the servant girl there, hut did not state that Mr. Price had com pleted his purpose, and the servant girl, together with Mr. John Deer, the third defendant in' the present charge, who also heard her, " made all the fun of her that ever they coeld," and said they would expose her to all the house. On the Thursday following her master followed her litto a room up stairs, and used her in a similar manner, and she did not cry Out, because she thought it was of no nee, as she had only been laughed at, and made all manner of fun of, when she complained before of Mr. Price's conduct, but she resisted with all her strength. The room in which the outrage was conimitted was next to a workshop, in which was a bell communicating with the' lower part of the house, and that hell rang during the time Mr. Deer was assailing her, and she heard Mr. Price callin g out from below, " What ! Nobody in the shop?" Mr. Deer, upon hearing this, stepped into the shop, walked heavily on the floor, and called out, " 0 yes, I am here." The charge against Mr. John Deer was, that of forcibly violat ing the person of the prosecutrix, and violently beating her about the face when she resisted. The prosecutrix added, that she was very ill on the Sunday afternoon, after the outrage by Mr. Price, and that she had been in bad health ever since. There could be no doubt from her appearance that she was, from some cause or other, in an ill state of health. Her mother, a decent-looking woman, who said she was the mother of 18 children, stated that she called at Mr. Deer's on , Wednesday last, to see her daughter, upon which occasion Mrs. Deer spoke very ill of her daughter, and complained of her conduct, and the latter then told her she had been ill-treated by Mr. Deer and his brother, describing their treatment nearly as she had now done - . She' said she was ill, and afitnees found upon examination that she was in a dreadful state of health. She told Mrs. Deer of what her daughter bad stated, and she said she had heard of Mr. John Deer's conduct, and was ashamed of it. In defence it was alleged, that the charge was made for the pur 'epee of extorting money, and Mr. Price called witnesses to prove that on the Friday, upon which she charged the charged the rape to have been committed,by him, he was at the house of his father in-law, Mr. Duncomhe, during the whole of the day. The prosecutrix, on being minutely examined by Mr. Ilates:, varied occasionally in some portions of her statement, And so, it is proper to state,- did the avituesees in support of the alibi. Mr. Duncombea female servant admitted, that the prosecutrix told her of something that Mr. Price had done to her on one Siinday, when she came to dinner.- . Mrs. Deer, the mistress of tbelprobecatrix, .a remarkably fine woman, far advanced in pregnancy, was examined, and denied that the girl had told her of the alleged conduct of'Mr. Price, on the day after it was said to have- taken plate.. Speaking in re ference to the charge against her husband, the witness, turning towards the prosecutrix, and with a look of ineffable scorn and contempt, exclaimed, " a pretty object of attraction for my husband, truly !" Mr. HALLS, after a moat patient ineestigatien of the whole circumstances, which occupied him until five o'clock in the after noon, said, he felt-himself authorised to exercise the discretion which a late act of Parliament had.veited in him, to take bail for the,future. appearance of thedsecused parties, and he should there fore order them to give sureties in the .amount of 801.- each, to appear at the next Sessions, leaving the accusers to adopt what course they should, in their own judgment, deem molt proper. Messrs. Deer and Price immediately found hail. These are the parties described in a Sunday Paper, • as—" a beautiful young lady, and two gentlemen of a highly respect able family !" . POLICE COURT. Saturday, a youthful Sampson from Leith was charged with having, by strength of arm, twisted three iron lamp-posts, at the head of the Abbey-kill, out of their perpendicular, and broken one of them, about two o'clock on Friday morning. On his way home, it *towel), that he hail felt an irrtisistible impulse to pull ,hewn the maid lamp-lowa ; unit his attempts to do so were surveyed in silent wontlei by three watchmen, who, upon his coming away, took him into custody. The etamination of one of the watchmen was not a little curious.' The Judge asked, " Where did you come from," (meaning what part of the road) " when you saw this?" The witness, scratching his head, replied, " Frae Inverness-shire, your Honour !"—(A loud laugh.),--He then proceeded with the details of his story, till, he came to talk about the light of the moon, when, it being'remarked that the moon must surely have been set at that time of the morning, he again, curry-combing his head, replied " Ugh! The mere rosed twice that mornings ;" and then 'milted sternly at the Judge, as if he dared him to dispute the truth of such a phenomenon. The prisoner was fined 2/., upon which he, thinking it very strange that the evidence of three sworn wit nesses should preponderate over his own affirmation, threw down a shilling.hy way of protest, and made his exit in a rage.— W as _ f low Courier. MURDER.- . —A report has been in circulation for soma days, that Dominiek.Noon, the approver, who prosecuted and convicted Maguire at the lot Spring Assizes of this town for administering the ribbonincrt's oath, and who disappeared so un accountably before the late Assizes, had., been murdered in the mountains of Clack, in this county. With the deepest horror we have learned, just as we were putting our paper to, press, that the report is but too well finiwled, and that the body of the unfor tunate man was found yesterday in one of the romantic caves in that mountain, 200 feet below, the surface. From the appearance of blood near the cave above stated, and other circumstances, it waa conjectured that the body had been thrown into it. After two days ineffectually spent, preparations were at length made, under Mr. Brien's direction, for descending into the cave. A windlass was erected over it, and a well-sinker, named Cavanagh, procured to go down. On descending to the bottom he, found the dead body, fastened a rope to it, and had it brought up. The head was dreadfully mangled, and presented a most frightful appearance. Great praise is due to Mr. Brien, for his unwearied exertions in the discovery of the body..Ennishillen Chronicle. On Thursday Mr. John Wilks, jun., resigned the solicitorship of the British Annuity Company; and yesterday the directors of the Cornwall, and Devon shire Mining Company, upon the receipt of a letter from Mr. Wilks, declared the solicitorship of that company vacant.
